What's important here is that you have a diversity of views on that board, and if you look at these companies — they've all embraced diversity. I think it served its purpose.” Billionaire Airbnb Co-Founder Is Said to Take Role in Musk's Government InitiativeJoe Gebbia, the Airbnb co-founder, is a board member at Tesla.Mr. Gebbia arrived at O.P.M.'s downtown Washington D.C. headquarters in a black S.U.V. with a three-man security detail‘Sustainable' Investors Flee References to Climate ChangeThe success of Republican attacks on ESG and Donald Trump's re-election has everyone running for cover.For more than a decade, investment chief of Green Alpha Investments Garvin Jabusch would show a chart of the planet's rising temperatures when pitching investment ideas to clients, saying they could help save the planet and still make money: “I've given up on anyone ever caring about that”Parnassus Investments, the biggest US sustainable-investing firm, has removed references on its website that its funds are “fossil-fuel free.”Engine No. 1, the small activist firm that led the shakeup of ExxonMobil Corp.'s board in 2021, has removed wording on its web page that corporate performance is “greatly enhanced” by investing in workers, communities and the environment. The fund now says it invests in companies that are “powering innovation and driving the reindustrialization of the United States.”Mr. BlowhardJamie Dimon is fed up with remote workLast year's proxy statement:“We continued to deliver strong multi-year financial performance, invest in our future, strengthen our risk and control environment, and reinforce our culture and values, including our long-standing commitment to serve our customers, employees and communities, and conduct business in a responsible way to drive inclusive growth.”Managed revenue of $162.4 billion — a record for the sixth consecutive yearExperienced growth across all of our market-leading lines of businessRecord net income of $49.6 billionExceptional Performance: the Firm's sustained strong relative outperformance compared to its peersJPMorgan CEO Dimon slams RTO pushback: ‘I don't care how many people sign that f*cking petition'Jamie Dimon Reportedly Says He'll Cut Some ‘Stupid' DEI Costs At JPMorgan ChaseJPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon wants to cancel some DEI spending after the bank spent billions on racial equity: ‘I was never a firm believer in bias training' In his remarks, Dimon reiterated the bank's commitment to improving society and said the company's approach to diverse employees and communities would stay the course. Yet, he reportedly added: “I saw how we were spending money on some of this stupid sh-t, and it really pissed me off,” Dimon said. “I'm just gonna cancel them. I don't like wasted money in bureaucracy.”There are two distinct elements to the determination of Jamie's pay plan: 50% is “the what” and 50% is “the how.” One of the three elements of “the how” is “Teamwork & Leadership,” which specifically includes “Creating an open, respectful, inclusive culture; Employer of choice for top talent from all backgrounds; Delivery on internal DEI initiatives.”One of the company's stated achievements in “Client/Customer/Stakeholder” was:Advancing racial equity: By the end of 2023, we reported nearly $31 billion of progress toward our five-year $30 billion Racial Equity Commitment to help close the racial wealth gap and advance economic inclusion among historically underserved communities in the U.S., including Black, Hispanic and Latino customers and communities.

Let's just talk about how investors are now paying ISS hundreds of thousands of dollars instead of Free Float in order to get LESS data - here are the “factors” you no longer consider for recommendations:Gender diversity:Women outpace men globally in sector knowledge for boards they're on - women are more likely to have gone to an elite school or have an advanced degree AND have direct knowledge of the industry of the company they're on the board ofWomen have stronger networks - because so few break the glass ceiling of boards, they end up getting recycled, which means they know more board members or have friends in commonWomen and men have exactly the same performance metrics as directors - by performance, I mean during their tenures, they oversee the exact same TSR and earnings performance percentiles versus industry peersMen have the advantage in leadership and economic interest - as in, women are rarely made CEOs unless there's a crisis and mommy has to clean up after the boys, and the boys almost always keep shares for themselves and don't give any to the girlsRacial/ethnic diversity:Black female directors at S&P 500 companies are the most knowledgeable of their industriesBlack female directors at S&P 500 companies also have the strongest networks - they have been recycled more, and thus have more friends in high placesAsian male directors at S&P 500 companies have the highest performance rates on TSR and earningsOverall, black male and female directors are the most “meriting” board positions at the S&P 500 companies Shareholders who don't use their rights DRSEC Looks to Muzzle Shareholder Culture WarriorsSchedule 13G is filed by owners of stock who have more than 5% of shares - so basically, Blackrock, Vanguard, State Street, Fidelity - major investorsBUT, if the owner takes an ACTIVIST position (like Elliott amassing in BP right now), and that position is greater than 5%, they file a 13D, not G - D means they intend to influence or change management in a proxy fight (or through engagement)13D has more reporting requirements because it's an activist stakeWell, because investors have basically ignored their basic rights for so long and deferred to management, this happens: SEC Provides New Guidance on Schedule 13G EligibilityThe new guidance says:Schedule 13G would be unavailable if a shareholder engages with the issuer's management to specifically call for the sale of the issuer or a significant amount of the issuer's assets, the restructuring of the issuer, or the election of director nominees other than the issuer's nominees.For example, Schedule 13G may be unavailable to a shareholder who:recommends that the issuer remove its staggered board, switch to a majority voting standard in uncontested director elections, eliminate its poison pill plan, change its executive compensation practices, or undertake specific actions on a social, environmental, or political policy and, as a means of pressuring the issuer to adopt the recommendation, explicitly or implicitly conditions its support of one or more of the issuer's director nominees at the next director election on the issuer's adoption of its recommendation; ordiscusses with management its voting policy on a particular topic and how the issuer fails to meet the shareholder's expectations on such topic, and, to apply pressure on management, states or implies during any such discussions that it will not support one or more of the issuer's director nominees at the next director election unless management makes changes to align with the shareholder's expectations.ENGAGEMENT DEATH BY BEAURACRACY THE MAJORS! This works out one of three ways: the majors can no longer vote against any director for fear it appears to be “coercive”, and subjects them to 13D scrutiny, OR…They axe entire engagement teams, stop engaging at all, abstain and only offer pass through votingThey buy Free Float data - imagine a world where you stop engagement or conversation about “key issues”, and vote instead against candidates that just failed to perform without telling them why. No engagement, just voting on the data!But in the end, because you never actually used actual data on your director vote, the SEC is making it harder for you now.

Vakantiegangers die kort op reis gaan laten de hotelkamer steeds vaker links liggen en boeken in plaats daarvan een Airbnb. In deze aflevering van Doorgelicht richten journalist Nina van den Dungen en analist Jim Tehupuring de schijnwerper op één van de grootste verhuurplatformen ter wereld, zodat jij als belegger kan bepalen wat een Airbnb-aandeel nou écht waard is. Nina vertelt je alles over de geschiedenis van Airbnb en Jim doet een fundamentele analyse.  Het bedrijf  Airbnb biedt via zijn platform wereldwijd bijna 8 miljoen accommodaties aan die door particulieren worden verhuurd. Door commissies bij elke transactie te innen, weet het bedrijf - dat zelf in San Francisco is gevestigd - een jaarlijkse omzet te realiseren die tot in de miljarden dollars oploopt. Toch is het elk kwartaal wel weer de vraag of er zwarte cijfers geschreven gaan worden. Het bedrijf werd in 2008 in San Francisco opgericht door de huisgenoten Brian Chesky Joe Gebbia. Het duo had toen snel extra geld nodig om de huur van hun appartement te kunnen betalen. Daarom lanceerden ze de website Airbedandbreakfast.com (afgekort Airbnb) waarop ze overnachtingen op luchtbedden bij hen thuis aanboden voor 80 dollar per nacht. Tot de verbazing van Chesky en Gebbia sloeg dat aan, waarna ze besloten om het concept uit te breiden.  Vandaag de dag is Airbnb één van de grootste verhuurplatforms ter wereld. Daardoor is het bedrijf ook in het vizier van toezichthouders en overheden terechtgekomen, omdat de verhuur via Airbnb flink wat impact heeft op lokale huur- en huizenprijzen. Zo is de Spaanse stad Barcelona van plan om de verhuur via Airbnb tegen 2028 te verbieden en gaat er vanaf 2026 een speciale Airbnb-wet in de Europese Unie in die het bedrijf dwingt om verhuurgegevens te delen met bijvoorbeeld gemeenten, zodat ze beter maatregelen kunnen nemen tegen het verhuurpaltform.   De fundamentele analyse  Voor Airbnb bespreken we onder andere de omzet, het operationeel resultaat (EBITDA), de netto winst(marge), de koerswinstverhouding, de vrije kasstroom, het missende dividend en de marktkapitalisatie. Ook kijken we verder dan de cijfers. We focussen bijvoorbeeld op het unieke businessmodel van Airbnb, de merkwaarde, de wereldwijde aanwezigheid, de schaalbaarheid van het platform en het grijze gebied waarin Airbnb juridisch gezien opereert. De presentatoren  Nina van den Dungen is journalist en presentatrice bij BNR Nieuwsradio. Als echte verhalenverteller vertelt ze je alles over de ontstaansgeschiedenis van bedrijven.   Jim Tehupuring is analist en vermogensbeheerder bij 1Vermogensbeheer. Met een flink dossier aan kennis en jarenlange ervaring in de financiële wereld, analyseert hij bedrijven in begrijpelijke taal.   Over Doorgelicht  In Doorgelicht richten Nina van den Dungen en Jim Tehupuring de schijnwerper op de bedrijven achter je favoriete aandelen zodat jij als belegger kan bepalen wat ze nou écht waard zijn.    Disclaimer  De inhoud van Doorgelicht is geen financieel advies.

Today, we're diving back into the Foundr Podcast archive to bring back a true highlight of an interview with Airbnb co-founder, Joe Gebbia. How do you raise capital for your startup? Well, if you ask the co-founder of Airbnb Joe Gebbia, he'll tell you what worked for him: Cereal. That's right, the company that started with a single air mattress and grew to a $100 billion empire was kept afloat by selling custom cereal boxes. It was bizarre but it worked. Gebbia muses in this episode of the Foundr podcast: “We made $20,000 in breakfast cereal, and we're able to basically pay off our credit card debt...The cereal, funnily enough, was how we were able to help keep the options open for us until eventually, the invitation came for Y Combinator.” In undoubtedly one of our most riveting episodes, Gebbia recounts his incredible journey from struggling to pay rent, to Airbnb's first angel investor, to one of the biggest brands in the world and Gebbia's incredible charity work. Gebbia is candid about how he overcame countless rejections and problems. Listen in as he shares specific advice for entrepreneurs looking to create the next industry disrupter: “You can see what's hot. You can go after an emerging industry... Or you can solve a problem. Your own problem. Airbnb was our own problem. We had a rent check that we couldn't pay. And it forced us to come up with a new way of making ends meet.” Click here to start your business for $1.

Throughout the year, the Land-Grant Podcast Network will be bringing you uncut audio primarily from Ohio State press conferences, but also from individual interview sessions. On today's episode of "Land-Grant Uncut," we are bringing you unedited audio from Ohio State football's final press conference before the start of preseason camp earlier this week. On Wednesday, Aug. 2, three of Ohio State's quarterbacks took to the podium to discuss the competition to name a starter, how they all differ from each other, and what it is like in the QB room. Third-year Buckeye Kyle McCord and second-year QB Devin Brown are (almost certainly) the two players in contention to become OSU's starter, with Gebbia serving as a mentor having transferred from Oregon State, at least in part, in order to further his goals of becoming a football coach.

How do you raise capital for your startup? Well, if you ask the co-founder of Airbnb Joe Gebbia, he'll tell you what worked for him:    Cereal.    That's right, the company that started with a single air mattress and grew to a $100 billion empire was kept afloat by selling custom cereal boxes.    It was bizarre but it worked. Gebbia muses in this episode of the Foundr podcast:   “We made $20,000 in breakfast cereal, and we're able to basically pay off our credit card debt...The cereal, funnily enough, was how we were able to help keep the options open for us until eventually, the invitation came for Y Combinator.”   In undoubtedly one of our most riveting episodes, Gebbia recounts his incredible journey from struggling to pay rent, to Airbnb's first angel investor, to one of the biggest brands in the world and Gebbia's incredible charity work.   Gebbia is candid about how he overcame countless rejections and problems. Listen in as he shares specific advice for entrepreneurs looking to create the next industry disrupter:    “You can see what's hot. You can go after an emerging industry... Or you can solve a problem. Your own problem. Airbnb was our own problem. We had a rent check that we couldn't pay. And it forced us to come up with a new way of making ends meet.” Get FREE, actionable advice from legitimate founders on starting and growing ANY Business… https://www.foundr.com/freetraining And… If you are enjoying the Foundr Podcast,, please leave us a 5-star review and let us know who you want to see next.

Welcome back for another episode of Nick’s Non-fiction with your host Nick Muniz! In The Airbnb Story, Leigh Gallagher details the unlikely story of two lax bros fresh out of RISD knocking on heavens door for angel investors. With the simple concept of classing up websites like Craigslist and Couch-surfing, Gebbia and Chesky corralled a $100B evaluation within twelve years now employing over 6,000 people. These two entrepreneurial mates raised a baby together detailing every step of its spree into adulthood. Hiring their first engineer was like designing the DNA for the company as the two aim to be a tier one tech company like Apple. After surviving the staggering infant mortality rate of small business they were onto the investors launchpad then shot into the stratosphere. Airbnb declared victory in its firefight of publicity when Obama showered them with compliments to a Cuban business relations committee. Even with black Jesus’s blessing, the onslaught of civic attacks continue as lawmakers create “minimum conference room” laws for hotels to extort higher margins from the company. So ya like bureaucratic overreach? Leigh drops some insider info on Airbnb’s mandatory CIA partnership with former director George Tenet to monitor cultural influence. Order more towels, soak in the tub and enjoy the pursuit of two men who wont take no for an answer in a game rigged against them from the start.

Why Saturday's game vs. Stanford has the potential to dictate the trajectory of Beaver Football for years to come. Also, reaction to the Utah loss and Gebbia vs. Chance Nolan.

On this episode of Off The Wall, Joey talks about the loss of Oregon State quarterback Tristan Gebbia and what he expects from back-up Chance Nolan. He also breaks down the chase for the Pac-12 North Division title and talks some college hoops, including Southern Oregon University opting out of their conference season.

How good does it feel to beat the Ducks? We discuss our favorite moments from the Rivalry Game and the significance of Friday's win. Also, how will the Beavs fare vs. Utah without Tristan Gebbia?

Chad catches up with Jonathan Smith coming off the win over Cal to discuss the Beavs resiliency, Gebbia's toughness, and the new-look Ducks with Shough and Moorehead. 11-24-20.

The guys dive right in to the Beavers-Huskies game and the Pac 12 Refs botching it again, is it time to move on from Gebbia, Fantasy Scramble, and quick thoughts on the Ducks win.

The guys dive right in to the Beavers-Huskies game and the Pac 12 Refs botching it again, is it time to move on from Gebbia, Fantasy Scramble, and quick thoughts on the Ducks win.

The Dawgman interns, Luke Mounger and Jack McCauley, are back to chop it up again. They thought they were previewing Washington's first opponent of the season, but as it turned out Mother Nature had other plans. So they're back at it again, and this week's opponent is the Oregon State Beavers. The Beavers already played one game, losing 38-28 to Washington State at home, and Luke and Jack give their initial impressions on what they saw from OSU that night. And they didn't mince words, starting with their strong takes on Oregon State's new quarterback, Tristan Gebbia. They had praise for OSU RB Jermar Jefferson, and that should come as no surprise. But where is their second back? Jack broke down the OSU receivers and their connection with Gebbia against the Cougars. Their main question is; is the OSU offense a sleeping giant that simply needs the right guy behind the controls? Or will they simply go as Gebbia goes in 2020? After a quick break, Luke and Jack come back with their breakdown of the defense, mostly done by Mr. Mounger. They start with a younger, smaller defensive front, then move to a talented group of linebackers, and then finish it off with the secondary. They also give their thoughts on where UW can possibly exploit the Beavers on defense, based in part on what Washington State was able to take advantage of. It should come as no surprise that it starts up front with their size advantage along the offensive line. And then they talk about a couple of the Oregon State players UW fans need to know about that could make a difference for the Beavers Saturday night. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we're going to talk through the history of Airbnb. But more importantly, we're going to look at what brought the hospitality industry to a place so ripe to be disrupted. The ancient Greeks, Romans, Persians, and many other cultures provided for putting travelers up while visiting other cities in one way or another. Then inns begins to rise from roads connecting medieval Europe, complete with stables and supplies to get to your next town. The rise of stagecoaches gave way to a steady flow of mail and a rise in travel over longer distances for business gave way to much larger and fancier hotels in the later 1700s and 1800s. In 1888 Cesare Ritz became the first manager of the Savoy hotel in London, after time at the Hotel Splendide in Paris and other hotels. He would open the Paris Ritz in 1898 and expand with properties in Rome, Frankfurt, Palermo, Madrid, Cairo, Johannesburg, Monte Carlo, and of course London. His hotels were in fact so fancy that he gave us the term ritzy. Ritz is one of the most lasting names but this era was the first boom in the hotel industry, with luxury hotels popping up all over the world. Like the Astor, the Waldorf Astoria, the Plaza, the Taj Mahal, and the list goes on. The rise of the hotel industry was on its way when Conrad Hilton bought the Mobley Hotel in Cisco Texas in 1919. By 1925 he would open the Dallas Hilton and while opening further hotels nearly ruined him in the Great Depression he emerged into the post World War II boom times establishing a juggernaut now boasting 568 hotels. Best Western would start in 1946 and now has 4,200 locations. After World War II we saw the rise of the American middle class and the great American road trip. Chains exploded. Choice Hotels which acts as more of a franchiseier established in 1939 sits with 7,000 locations but that's spread across Extended Stay, MainStay, Quality Inn, Cambria Hotels, Comfort Inn, and other brands. Holiday Inn was founded 1952 in the growing post-war boom time by Kemmons Wilson and named after the movie by the same name. The chain began with that first hotel in 1952 and within 20 years hit 1,400 Holiday Inns landing Wilson on the cover of Time as “The Nation's Innkeeper.' They would end up owning Harrah's Entertainment, Embassy Suites Hotels, Crowne Plaza, Homewood Suites, and Hampton Inn now sitting with 1,173 hotels. The Ramada would start the next year by Marion Isbell and has now grown to 811 locations. Both of them started their companies due to the crappy hotels that were found on the sides of roads, barely a step above those founded in the medieval days. Howard Johnson took a different path, starting with soda shops then restaurants and opening his first hotel in 1954, expanding to 338 at this point, and now owned by Wyndham Hotels, a much later entrant into the hotel business. Wyndham also now owns Ramada. The 1980s led to a third boom in hotels with globalization, much like it was the age of globalization for other brands and industries. The oil boom in the Middle East, the rising European Union, the opening up of Asian markets. And as they grew, they used computers to build software to help and cut costs and enable loyalty programs. It was an explosion of money and profits and as the 80s gave way to the 90s, the Internet gave customers the ability to comparison shop and the rise of various sites that aggregated hotel information, with Expedia, Travelocity, American Express, even Concur rising - sites came and went quickly and made it easy for AccorHotels to research and then buy Raffles, Sofitel, Novotel and for Intercontinental and others to user in the era of acquisitions and mergers. Meanwhile the Internet wasn't just about booking hotels at chains easily. VRBO began in 1995 when David Clouse wanted to rent his condo in Breckenridge and got sick of classifieds. Seeing the web on the rise, he built a website and offered subscriptions to rent properties for vacations, letting owners and renters deal directly with one another to process payments. Vacation Rentals By Owner, or VRBO would expand through the 90s. And then Paris Hilton happened. Her show The Simple Life in 2003 led to a 5 year career that seemed to fizzle at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2008 with the release of a critical documentary of her called Paris, Not France. The mergers and acquisitions and globalization and being packed in stale smokey rooms like sardines seemed to have run its course. Boutique hotels were opening, a trend that started in the 90s and by 2008 W Hotels was expanding into Europe, now with 55 properties around the world. And that exemplifies what some of this backlash was against big chains that was starting to brew. In 2004, CEH Holdings bought a few websites to start HomeAway.com and in 2006 raised $160 million in capital to buy VRBO and gain access to their then 65,000 properties. homeaway.com would be acquired by Expedia in 2015 for $3.9 billion, but not before a revolution in the hospitality industry began. That revolution started with 2 industrial design students. Brian Chesky and Joe Gebbia had come from the Rhode Island School of Design. After graduation Gebbia would move to San Francisco and Chesky would move to Los Angeles. They had worked on projects together in college and Gebbia bugged Chesky about moving to San Francisco to start a company together for a few years. By 2007 Chesky gave in and made the move, becoming one of Gebbia's two roommates. It was the beginning of the Great Recession. They were having trouble making rent. The summer of 2008 brought the Industrial Designers Society of America's Industrial Design Conference to San Francisco. They had the idea to take a few air beds from a recent camping trip and rent them out in their apartment. Paris Hilton would never have done that. They reached out to a former roommate of theirs, Nathan Blecharczyk. He's a Harvard alum and pretty rock solid programmer and signed on to be a co-founder, building them a website in Ruby on Rails. They rented those three airbeds out and called their little business airbedandbreakfast.com. They thought they were on to something. I mean, who wouldn't want to rent an airbed and crash on someone's kitchen floor?!?! But reality was about to come calling. Venture capital was drying up due to the deepening recession. They tried to raise funding and failed. And so far their story seems pretty standard. But this is where I start really liking them. They bought a few hundred boxes of cereal and made '"Obama O's" and "Cap'n McCain's" to sell at the Democratic National Convention in 2008 for $40 per box. They sold $30,000 worth, enough to bootstrap the company. They would go to South By South West and visit events, growing slowly in New York and San Francisco. The money would last them long enough to make it into Y Combinator in 2009. Paul Graham and the others at Y Combinator has helped launch 2,000 companies, including Docker, DoorDash, Dropbox, GitLab, Gusto, Instacart, Reddit, Stripe, Twitch, and Zapier. They got $20,000 from Y Combinator. They changed the site to airbnb.com and a people started to book more and more stays - and not just with airbeds, but rending their full homes out. They charged 3% of the booking as a fee - a number that hasn't really changed in all these years. They would get $600,000 in funding from Sequoia Capital in 2009 when they finally got up to 2,500 listings and had 10,000 users. Nothing close to what homeaway.com had, but they would get more funding from Sequoia and added Greylock to the investors and by the close of 2010 they were approaching a million nights booked. From here, the growth got meteoric. They won the app award during a triumphant return to South By South West in 2011 and went international, opening an office in London and expanding bookings to 89 countries. The investments, the advertising, the word of mouth, the media coverage. So much buzz and so much talk about innovation and disruption. The growth was explosive. They would iterate the website and raised another $112 million dollars in venture capital. And by 2012 they hit 10 million nights booked. And that international's expansion paid off with well over half being outside of the United States. Growth of course led to problems. A few guests trashed their lodgings and Airbnb responded with a million dollar policy to help react to those kinds of things in the future. Some of the worse aspects of humanity can be seen on the web. They also encountered renters trying to discriminate based on race. So they updated their policies and took a zero tolerance approach. More importantly, they responded that they didn't have to think of such things given the privilege of having a company founded by three white guys. They didn't react with anger or displacement. They said we need to be better, with every problem that came up. And the growth continued. Doubling every year. They released a new logo and branding in 2014 and by 2016 were valued at $30 billion dollars. They added Trips, which seems to still be trying to catch up to what Groupon started doing for booking excursions years ago. During the rise of AirBNB we saw an actual increase in hotel profits. Customers are often millennials who are traveling more and more, given the way that the friction and some of the cost has been taken out of travel. The average age of a host is 43. And of the hosts I know, I can wager that Airbnb rentals have pumped plenty of cash back into local economies based on people taking better care of their homes, keeping fresh paint, and the added tourism spend when customers are exploring new cities. And not just visiting chains. After all, you stay at Airbnb for the adventure, not to go to shop for the same stuff at Forever 21. Even if you take out the issues with guests trashing places and racism, it still hasn't all been sunshine and unicorns. AirBNB has been in legal battles with New York and a few other cities for years. Turns out that speculators and investors cause extra strain on an already over-burdened housing market. If you want to see the future of living in any dense population center, just look to New York. As the largest city in the US, it's also the largest landlord of any public institution with over 400,000 tenants. And rent is rising almost twice as fast as incomes with lower income rents going up faster than those of the wealth. Independent auditors claim that AirBNB is actually accountable for 9.2 percent of that. But 79 percent of hosts use their Airbnb earnings to afford their apartments.And if many of the people that count on AirBNB to make their rent can't afford their apartments. AirBNB argues their goal is to have “one host, one home” which is to say they don't want a lot of investors. After all, will most investors want to sit around the kitchen table and talk about the history of the city or cool tidbits about neighborhoods. Probably not. AirBNB was started to offer networking opportunities and a cool place to stay that isn't quite so… sterile. Almost the opposite of Paris Hilton's life, at least according to TMZ and MTV shows. San Francisco and a number of other cities have passed ordinances as well, requiring permits to rent homes through AirBNB and maximizing the number of days a home can be rented through the service, often to about two thirds of a year. But remember, AirBNB is just the most visible but not the only game in town. Most category leaders have pre-existing competition, like VRBO and HomeAway. And given the valuation and insane growth of AirBNB, it's also got a slew of specialized competitors. This isn't to say that they don't contribute to the problems with skyrocketing housing costs. They certainly do. As is often the case with true disruptors, Pandora's Box is open and can't be closed again. Regulation will help to limit the negative impacts of the disruption but local governments will alienate a generation that grew up with a disruption if they are overly-punitive. And most of the limits in place are easily subverted anyways. For example, if there's a limit on the number of nights you can rent, just do half on VRBO and the other half on Airbnb. But no matter the problems, AirBNB continues to grow. They react well. Gebbia, now the CEO, has a deep pipeline of advisors he can call on in times of crisis. Whether corporate finance, issues with corporate infighting, crisis management, or whatever the world throws at them, the founders and the team they've surrounded themselves with have proven capable of doing almost anything. Today, AirBNB handles over half a million transactions per night. They are strongest with millineals, but get better and better at expanding out of their core market. One adjacency would be corporate bookings through a partnership with Concur and others, something we saw with Uber as well. Another adjacency. They now make more money than the Hilton and Hilton subsidiaries. Having said that, the major hotel chains are all doing better financially today than ever before and continue to thrive maybe despite, or maybe because AirBNB. That might be misleading though, revenue per room is actually decreasing correlative to the rise of AirBNB. And of course that's amplified at the bottom tier of hotels. Just think of what would have happened had they not noticed that rooms were selling out for a conference in 2007. Would what we now call the “sharing” economy be as much a thing? Probably. Would someone else have seized the opportunity? Probably. But maybe not. And hopefully the future will net a more understanding and better connected society once we've all get such intimate perspectives on different neighborhoods and the amazing little ecosystems that humanity has constructed all over the world. That is the true disruption: in an age of global sterility, offering the most human of connections. As someone who loves staying in quirky homes on Airbnb, a very special thanks to Chesky, Gebbia, Blecharczyk, and the many, many amazing people at Airbnb. Thank you for reacting the way you do to problems when they arise. Thank you for caring. Thank you for further democratizing and innovating hospitality and experiences. And most importantly, thank you for that cabin by the lake a few months ago. That was awesome! And thanks to the listeners who tuned in to this episode, of the History of Computing Podcast. Have a great day!
